    Kev- It's alright bro. Good looking out, but Matt's cool. It's constructive criticism. I'm good. Matt and I are cool. I like that you were about to throw down for me though......

    Matt- You're right on in most of that. I don't have a 77mm CPL filter because I just got that lens the other night. I just ordered it yesterday (cause nobody local freaking had it ), so I should have it by the week's end. The only thing I had to fight the sun and haze with was the hood and well....that's not good enough. I tried shooting with the smaller lens that I do have filters for, but I just wasn't getting the effect I wanted. The AMS sign, you're dead on. I should've caught that logo on the right all the way. I just rushed that shot. The motor.....that is the whole motor. It was on a stand as a display. I didn't want to include the stand because it was kinda boring and would take away from the motor itself IMO. I do need to start doing some processing to the pics after taking them. I just don't have nor know how to work with PS or the likes. I have to start to learn how to work with them. Maybe that will be my next project.

    Nitro- Anytime you're ready bud. All I ever need is an excuse to take pics.

    Lauren- Thank you. BTW, sending you a PM about something.

    Jaime, sucks about having to order the PL filter in. Now for the next one you need, just read up on this one is the Neutral Density filter. Saw some pics with the filter and wow, big difference. I am looking into finding me one also.


    You know Jaime, Nitro's car would be a good one to do test shots on location with also. With the lambo doors trying to get the highlights just right will be a challenge.

    I was just reading about Neutral density filters yesterday. I wasn't paying too much attention to it because I was digging for a PL instead. I'll have to go back and read about them.

    What are they supposed to do?

    This was taken off of one of the photog sites I am on

    Another filter I find very handing and use it more and more, is the graduated natural density filter (ND02). I use a Cokin mount so that I can control when and where the graduation starts. This is useful for bright skies or bright foreground grounds to keep the tonal range with in your camera’s range of reproduction.
